Skeletons in the Closet
Edited on Sun May-04-08 08:42 PM by JMDEM
In the primaries, it appears that Hillary has dug up virtually every skeleton on Obama she could find. And she has been aided by the right wing Republican attack machine.

But what skeletons does Hillary have?

<snip> Original post largely modified (edited) at the advice from a friend. Right now I don't want to go there. Let's leave this as a general discussion of Hillary skeletons.

1. I think it is the stuff since they left the WH, as well as some of what's been said on the
campaign trail that will come back to haunt them badly. All of the responses that Obama could have used against Clinton if he wanted to slap her down and run the same kind of campaign that she has, the GOP will use.

The fact that she is a McCain Mini Me on foreign policy and the Gas tax at this point will be her greatest vunerability.

2. Hillary Clinton: "No regret on Iraq vote"

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said she is not sorry she voted for a resolution authorizing President Bush to take military action in Iraq despite the recent problems there but she does regret "the way the president used the authority."

"How could they have been so poorly prepared for the aftermath of the toppling of Saddam Hussein?" the New York Democrat asked Tuesday night on CNN's "Larry King Live."

"I'm so happy being senator from New York right now. I love my life. I love my job. I want to see it through," Clinton said. "The people of New York took a chance on me, and I'm well aware of that.

"I said I wouldn't run(for pres), and I really mean it. I'm not going to run."

6. That's just it....they will......but they don't want to help Obama with that kind of stuff......
They are salivating waiting for Hillary to try to play their game against them.

On her part, she has spent any sympathy she had with Democrats....so she will have a double dilemna.

Which is why she won't be the nominee.

4. Well, there's this one:
HUMA ABEDIN!

Hillary's very personal staffer, and the rumors are all over the internet.

And I've been hearing Randi Rhodes insinuate that there's a big one ready to break any minute but she's not telling.

If it were about government business, Randi would certainly tell.

Google her.

7. More interesting would be WHY Hillary chose New York as a state to be Senator.
She claims to have lived in a half dozen different states, but New York wasn't one of them.

It's a fact that the PNAC manifesto was published before the 2000 election. It's also a fact that the PNAC plan calls for an event "such as a new Pearl Harbor" in order to sell that agenda to the American public, which would be in a collective post traumatic state.

Did PNAC already have their target chosen? And if so, did they know that they would need a senator in place who would play ball by their neocon rules.

I'm not accusing Hillary of being part of the planning of 9-11, mind you. Though there ARE members of the DLC who have been associated with PNAC. Co founder Will Marshall, for one. And nobody can deny that Hillary did their bidding after the fact, voting for both the Patriot Act and the Iraq war. And now threatens to obliterate Iran. Just like the PNAC madmen have wanted to do for years.
